Monday's child is fair of face,
Tuesday's child is full of grace, Wednesday's child is full of woe, Thursday's child has far to go. Friday's child is loving and giving, Saturday's child works hard for a living, But the child born on the Sabbath Day, Is fair and wise and good and gay. I was a Tuesday child! 5.30 in the AM!!!

ID ... do you know that this is Root Canal Awareness Week (29 Mar - 4 April)?? | ||||||
| Lord Blackadder |
The ancient Hebrews related stories to their children that they would understand the world around them. In turn, they learned them from their ancestor, Avram, son of Terah. Terah was from UR of the Chaldees at the head of the Persian Gulf. But Terah, was also the name of a moon-god.
It's obvious that these tales had Babylonian and Sumerian precedents ... but changed by the time of the Hebrews (2000 yrs later) and altered out of recognition ... plus been adapted to a Lunar calendar. The word "month" in ancient Hebraic, is very similar to "year" and part of the problem lies there. The other 99% is Man explaining to Child by analogy ... which has become corrupted through time! Think of it like Chinese Whispers. There's no doubt that Methuselah (if he existed) was 969 MONTHS old, not years. Divide that by 12 (solar months) ... is 80 years and 9 months. Much more credible, isn't it?? Feeling better now, Sid? You have at least 5 more years till you're that old!!!

Blackadder. I always thought that Methuslah was a woman.
I was born on a Wednesday and life certainly brought me more than my share of woes. |
||||||
| Lord Blackadder |
Well, that far back in time who knew anything????
|
||||||
| Mad Welshie |
Maybe Lord Adder is the reincarnated version!! 
|
||||||
| Lord Blackadder |
Aye right .............. and you'll be Messalina reborn ... only without a conscience!!!
|
||||||
| Mad Welshie |
Cool Idea 
|
||||||
| Lord Blackadder |
You think so??
One is forced to wonder if you know of or even looked up Messalina. If not, look her up on Wikipedia ... but do read beyond the first wee paragraph. It' not for nothing that Messalina’s name is now often used as a synonym for sexual promiscuity, manipulativeness, and treachery.

| Mad Welshie |
I was being sarcastic!! 
|
||||||
| Lord Blackadder |
Really?? How could you tell?? I couldn't!
|
||||||
| Silverfox |
She could tell as it was she who was being sarcastic.
|
||||||
| Perisphere |
Ya think, maybe Blackasser needs to lay off the mescalina?
|
||||||
| Silverfox |
Maybe Slackbladder should just lay off, full stop, or find a new script.
|
||||||
| Mad Welshie |
Agreed Silverfox . Its like an old record that has got stuck.  
|
||||||
| Lord Blackadder |
Oh really? From where I'm sitting, she doesn't even know what sarcasm is!
Looks like you kinda dropped the ball on that one too! Did it hurt your toes then?
|
||||||
| Silverfox |
You must work really hard at being so tedious - or does it just come naturally? | ||||||
| Lord Blackadder |
Nah ... unlike you ... I have to work really hard at it. How do you do it so easily???
